Happy Birthday to Me eschewed convention long before metatextual stories and increasingly intrepid sequels became the norm for the subgenre.

[J. Lee] Thompson pinned the crime on a different culprit, making for a ridiculously entertaining, if not entirely credible ending, though credibility doesn't appear to have been the goal in a slasher with more comic moments than most.

Although it was released when slasher films were already becoming a dime a dozen, this does enough different to marginally stand out from the pack.

There is only one line on the poster of Happy Birthday To Me that you should take very seriously — Pray you're not invited.

A cult favourite to many due its black sense of humour and nonsensical ending, Happy Birthday to Me will be a bewilderment to others for exactly the same reasons.
